Fields of Honor Rhodesian Test Board Layout

Lots of photos to share in this update. Most everything is done for the convention and the photos below show the tentative board layout planned for Fields of Honor coming up this weekend. There are actually two more boards planned that would fill in the driveway to take place of the two regular landscape boards that I'll be using instead. The additional road boards were cut from the plan partially due to time constraints and mostly due to the worn thin patience of my wife. I guess I don't blame her since I've pretty much been working on building terrain non-stop every evening for the past couple months. Anyway, what has been built turned out pretty decent and hopefully it will be fun to play on. Enough preamble, here are the photos.

The 28mm miniatures to be used for the planned scenario have also been painted and just await their final seal. I'll try to get them photographed and posted sometime soon.

Additional photos with outdoor natural lighting will be added when I get the chance as well. The better lighting will be good to show the details of the individual pieces.

About Me

I've been building terrain and playing various RPG and miniature games for about 25 years. The past decade or so I've certainly built more terrain than played games. I'm not sure why I build what I build, but I figure I should share some of the inspiration and skill God gave me.
